The Cheating game

The woman who doesn't want to kiss Tom

*Alicia*
"Thomas William Hiddleston.. I am not going to kiss you, so move your tiny ass and let me do my job". I look up, getting annoyed at the tall man blocking me in.

He is grinning in the most cheeky way and his blue eyes has a mischievous glint. "Come on Alli.. I know you want to.. let's just get it over with".

Honestly I feel a bit cornered.. as I am standing in a corner of the Makeup trailer, my back against the wall.. his slim muscular frame blocking me, one long arm and big hand on each side, resting next to my head.

"This might be a new concept to you Tom, but not all women wants to kiss you". I duck under his arm, pointing at the chair with a stern look. "Now sit".

Chris Hemsworth is laughing heartlessly from the other chair where he is getting his Thor makeup done. "Sorry Tom..I think you should just give up mate".

"Oh no Chris, I ain't giving up..she will give in and kiss me". Tom sit down, grinning widely before winking at me.

I just ignore him, and start on the makeup that will turn him into Loki the God of mischief.. which I am starting to feel is much closer to reality than anyone seem to think.

Tom is flirting blatantly with me the entire time I am working, which seem to amuse everyone else.. especially Chris.. maybe because it isn't working at all... I keep ignoring him.

When I am done, only Tom and me is left in the trailer.. I look at him. "You better hurry over to costumes".

He stand up.. the change from sun kissed, ginger-blonde, always smiling Tom to dark haired, pale and sulking Loki is almost scary, even though I was the one who did it.

He lean down to whisper in my ear.. doing his Loki voice and letting his lips brush my ear. "Believe me Alli, I never give up on a bet..you will give in.. actually I dare say that you will beg to kiss me".

I grind my teeth, annoyed that his voice sends little chills through my body. "Do you really believe that yourself Hiddles ?"

"Oh I know my pretty..you and me later ?" He is grinning as he leave the trailer, and I feel like throwing something at someone.. preferably Tom.

Arg that man is so freaking conceited..but okay I guess it's hard to blame him.. I mean most women would probably have given in to his charms pretty fast.. just not me.

It is the stupid bet.. why on earth did I agreed to such foolishness ? And who was the idiot who put that note in the bowl ?

The game had started during the filming of the first Thor movie.. we call it 'the cheating game', everyone puts their name in a bowl and in the other bowl is different dares.

Then two names are drawn and a dare.. you have to cheat your partner into doing the dare first.. it is usually something like getting drunk as a skunk, sleep in and be late, singing loudly on set or something else silly.

It is usually pretty fun and innocent, even if people tend to get really competitive at times.. but hey everyone is friends again when it is over.. it has always been just fun and games after all.

We were a small group, who had gotten together the first evening everyone was back on set for the third Thor movie.. mostly people working behind the camera and then Chris and Tom.

I let out a sigh when my name was drawn with Toms and he had winked at me. "Uh Alli, no matter what the dare is, you know I got you.. you could just give up now".

"Really Tom, do you actually believe that yourself ? I won every dare so far". But I happened to know that Tom had also won every one of his and he wouldn't be easy to fool..he is pretty smart.

Then Chris pulled their dare..laughing so much he nearly couldn't get the words out and I felt all colour disappear from my face. "A passionate kiss".

"That is almost to easy..I kind of feel like I am cheating here". Tom had said smirking at me.

I had raised one eyebrow at him. "Oh.. so that's what you think Hiddles ? Good for me, that you are so not my type, and by the way..what will your girlfriend think ?"

"Ouch so you think I am not your type ? Wonna bet that I can change your mind on that ? And her ? Well what she doesn't know .." He sent me a very naughty grin and shrugged.

I shake my head, suddenly the game doesn't seem so fun.. I don't want to kiss Tom and I don't want to try and get him to kiss me.. also I do have a boyfriend at home.

But I can't just pull out.. it would be as bad as losing.. even worse actually and I hate losing.. also, I would never hear the end of it from Tom.

The first three days we have been watching each other.. trying to find the best way to attack.. to cheat the other into doing it.. his first real try had been this morning in the trailer.

I shake my head again, I am 29 years old and a makeup artist for marvel, I love my job.. and I have worked with Tom several times now.. I actually like him.. as a friend I mean, but he is just so not my type.

I pull my dark hair into a ponytail and send my green eyes a sad look in the mirror.. before grabbing my makeup bag.. I have to get on set.. to be ready to keep his makeup tip top during the shoots.
